This guy nearly killed me on my ride home. Twice. YOU'LL NEVER GUESS what his record of unpaid tickets looks like.

I feel like I'm about to launch into @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social's tirade about unnecessary Oreo varieties. You got it right on the first try! Rest on those laurels! What are we even doing here? These all sound completely disgusting.

Seems like there's zero chance that the Arts of War and Arts of Peace statue gilding projects by Memorial Bridge will be done by the 4th. Instead, residents and visitors alike are instead treated to these four eyesores right next to all the memorials.

I need everybody to understand that the Canadian Embassy's entry in the DC Pride parade was a pickup truck with a moose-shaped pool toy, a cardboard cutout of Hudson Williams, and a window-decal depicting a Blackberry. 10/10. No notes.

Great moments in UI design, @wmata.com edition.
An electronic sign indicating next-train arrivals on the Washington Metro.  The word "No Passenger" is awkwardly fit into the sign's information hierarchy, adding unnecessary spaces to the words.

There have been a lot of wild threads recently, but this is easily the wildest one The OFFICIAL POSITION of the community association is that it cares so much about affordable housing that it wants a $150k kickback from a developer to fund a private playground, in lieu of funding affordable housing

Fun fact: Dulles Airport is located entirely within a pocket universe located inside of this Metro pylon.
A pylon within a Washington DC Metro station.  Signs on both sides of the pylon labeled IAD have arrows pointing at each other.

If I’m counting correctly, today marks the 15th straight election in Arlington that Clement has run in, and lost. #arlingtonva If at first you don’t succeed…. embrace fascism, and lose again anyway.

Sigh. That AWS postmortem was written by an LLM, wasn't it? Real humans do not write like this.

Wild that the key "success" of the unlawful military occupation of DC basically amounts to a very expensive Eagle Scout project.

Kudos to the USPS mailman who is just trying to deliver the mail on 14th St NW while the WorldPride parade happens all around him. Absolute legend.

Both Specialized and Trek have fairly upright, step-through frames, and it should be pretty easy to find a place that stocks them. Some of the more bespoke options are nice, but also expensive, and seem to prioritize twee over functionality (if that makes any sense)

Okay, so some of the reports about the safety of DC's waterways are overblown (I've inadvertently ended up in both the Potomac and Anacostia, and lived to tell the tale). However, I absolutely would not take my family swimming directly downstream of four active sewer outflow points.

Here's a link! www.vesselfinder.com/ports/USSEA001 Currently, it says "64 vessels have arrived within the past 24 hours and 26 ships are expected to arrive in the next 30 days" I have no clue what typical volumes of Chinese-flagged vessels in Seattle are supposed to be, TBH.
